Sen. Bam: Well, I think, at the end of the day, babagsak siya sa budget. And maganda rin kasi si Secretary Esperon was quite supportive in really putting in the resources, hindi lang po sa DOST or sa UP, pero pati rin po sa ating Armed Forces. How can we monitor the area better? How can we do research better? How can we possibly acquire the resources in the area better, na hindi na tayo masyadong dependent sa iba? Palagay ko, babagsak rin iyan sa capacity building ng ating mga ahensiya. And many of us here, I think, are of the mindset already na panahon na talaga na madevelop yung lugar na iyan. Our economy is doing better, meron tayong dagdag sa ating budget every year, a significant amount should be put into seeing how we can protect and develop the Philippine Rise area.
